Well, I’ve been searching around looking for an additional member to the club. The club only housed the SKX007 and the Black Ice which is still ticking. The rest of the members were sold due to the economic downturn.
That’s life; nothing stays forever. However ”Living your life to the fullest is an adventure. It is your journey and destiny, enjoy it, get the best of the best, perhaps an excellent automatic watch? Seeing its ticking means your heart still beating, and the experience continues until it finally ended for good.”
So, in this new quest searching for the so-called ‘holy grail’ of your own. (well don’t take it literally, because you won’t stop looking for watches until you stop ticking - it’s your hobby and passion, how can you control?).
The best part of the journey is having a problem making a decision and starting rationalising every detail, specification, etc.
However, it is not that difficult, take the one that pleases and smile back at you, like the Black Ice, I picked it up because I like it. It was a straightforward decision. But, the next selection would be strict. Why? Because you need to get the watch that can justify the usage and the value for your money.
Therefore, which one should I choose? Err sorry...Rolex is now out of the picture...I myself can’t justify the need for it, the price has gone up about RM10K since I bought and sold my Explorer 1...the amount in which I can use to fund my own research - on books, travel and such...
I’ve checked the IWC, ORIS, Luminox, Seiko 4R36 and 6R15 range, Omega Seamaster, oh yea the Rolex Explorer 2...whereby the new face is no longer carry the patina looks that everyone desire of...hmm not to forget the Longines Hydroconquest too. So, which one of these would be the new member of MyExplorerClub?
